Dr Monica Agarwal, Senior Consultant Obstetrics & Gynaecology said, “Women health in India is examined in terms of multiple indicators which vary from geography, culture and socio-economics status. Currently women in India are facing multiple health problems. Poor health has repercussions not only for women but for their families as well. Women with poor health are more likely to give birth to low weight babies. Also they are less likely to provide adequate food and care to their children.”

During her awareness talk, Dr. Agarwal said, menstrual hygiene is most important for woman health but it is neglected. Today there are a number of ways including the use of sanitary napkins, tampons and menstrual cups to stay clean. The most common cause of iron deficiency Anaemia is due to loss of iron in blood due to heavy period or pregnancy especially in child bearing age. Poor eating lifestyle or certain intestinal diseases can affect the body absorption of iron that can also cause iron deficiency Anaemia.
